Essential properties for rings of integer-valued polynomials (Q6163758)

Let \(D\) be an integral domain with quotient field \(K\) and \(\operatorname{Int}(D) := \{f \in K[X] \mid f(D) \subseteq D \}\) be the ring of integer-valued polynomials over \(D\). It is known that when \(\operatorname{Int}(D)\) is a Krull domain [\textit{P.-J. Cahen} et al., J. Pure Appl. Algebra 153, No. 1, 1--15 (2000; Zbl 0978.13010), Corollary 2.7] and a Prüfer \(v\)-multiplication domain (P\(v\)MD for short) [\textit{P.-J. Cahen} et al., J. Algebra 226, No. 2, 765--787 (2000; Zbl 0961.13012), Theorem 3.4]. Motivated by these results, this paper investigates when \(\operatorname{Int}(D)\) has essential-type properties. In particular, the authors give a complete characterization of when \(\operatorname{Int}(D)\) is locally essential, locally P\(v\)MD, locally UFD, locally GCD, Krull-type, or generalized Krull.
